Serissa ("Tree of a Thousand Stars") flowers more heavily and more reliably than most other species we stock, with masses of tiny white blooms in summer. It moves indoors for winter and back outside for the growing season, and is less forgiving of the soil drying out completely than Chinese Elm or jade — check it more often, not less.
